The drinking water community is leading the development of security measures
to ensure the protection of public water supplies, treatment, and delivery
in the United States.
The Foundation has taken a prominent role in this effort by developing new
knowledge and practical guidance on a range of critical security issues. It
has fast-tracked research projects, established a funding mechanism for increased
security-related research, and participated in the coordination of a research
Foundation Mission: Provide research to help water utilities assess and address
risks related to the security of infrastructure and water quality, prepare
for incident response and recovery, and meet security-related federal mandates
to ensure a safe and dependable drinking water supply.
